• Which of the following are not one of the three key experiments contributed to our current
  understanding of hereditary material?

What was the name of the bacterium that Frederick Griffith studied?

Through
experimentation and
research of __________,
Griffith discovered the
process of
transformation.

Bacterial transformation is the process of a
bacterium uptaking external, exogenous genetic
material and incorporating it into their own
genome.

• One of the biggest implications we now know of
  is the transfer of advantageous genes, such as
  antibiotic resistance, through __________.

What is the meaning of a virulent bacteria?

What is the meaning of a non-virulent bacteria?

• When Griffith injected mice with the virulent bacteria, _____________

• When Griffith injected mice with the non-virulent bacteria, _________.

• When Griffith injected mice with heat-treated (killed) virulent
  bacteria, ___________

• When Griffith injected mice with heat-treated virulent
  bacteria and living non-virulent bacteria, _________.

• When Griffith injected mice with both forms of the virus that
  had been heat-treated, ________.

The scientific trio, Avery, Macleod, and McCarty expanded upon Griffith’s work in
order to answer the question of ____________.

• Avery, MacLeod, and McCarty isolated and purified molecules from the
  heat-treated bacteria, including all of the following except for ______.

• Avery, MacLeod, and McCarty isolated and purified molecules from the
  heat-treated bacteria, including all of the following except for ______.

• Avery, MacLeod, and McCarty inoculated mice through a reductive
  process to deduce which molecule was killing
  the mice.

• Avery, MacLeod, and McCarty experimented with inoculating mice by adding lipase to remove lipids from the dead bacteria.

• Avery, MacLeod, and McCarty experimented with inoculating mice by adding carbohydrase to remove sugars from the dead bacteria.

• Avery, MacLeod, and McCarty experimented with inoculating mice by adding

• protease to remove proteins.

• Avery, MacLeod, and McCarty experimented with inoculating mice by adding

• RNase to remove RNA.

• Avery, MacLeod, and McCarty experimented with inoculating mice by adding

• DNase to remove DNA.

• In Avery, McLeod, and McCarty's experiment of inoculating mice, once DNA was removed, mice died. This lead to the conclusion that DNA was the genetic material.

• While the Avery-MacLeod-McCarty experiment was
  well received as proving DNA as the genetic
  material, it was still only a theory.

  • There was no definitive way to say, with
    certainty, that it was DNA being taken up by
    the bacteria in Avery, MacLeod, and McCarty’s
    setup.

• Since Avery-MacLeod-McCarty's experiment was just a theory, Hershey and Chase turned to radioactive labeling to provide substantiating visual evidence

a virus that infects bacteria

With radioactive labeling, a bacteriophage can be marked or “labeled”
with radioactive __________.
